Contexualized Learning Activities (CLAs)


CLAs are learning activites which enable students to connect their learning in a given course to a SHSM sector and are based on the curriculum expectations of the course. Students enrolled in a SHSM are required to complete a CLA if the science course is listed as an "other required credit" in their pathway. Since the CLAs meet the curriculum expectations of a given course, they can serve as a useful teacher resource.

The following CLAs have been written for science by Dufferin-Peel teachers and are available on the FYI portal. To access these resources:
  • type in FYI into the web browser when connected to a school computer (or via VPN)
  • scroll down and click on "More Items" near the bottom of the page
  • scroll down and click on "Specialist High Skills Major"
  • click on "Science"
